Retrofit cam, sensors & xenon

Ritsuke · Jun 15th, 2013, 10:00

Hi,

Currently I'm driving a 2011 Volvo S60 but I would like to retrofit some parts for safety, general & look reasons.

Rear view camera

I've found a guide on Volvo accessories on how to install the camera but I also found out the piece costs around € 800. Does anyone know a cheaper, yet as good, alternative?

Front parking sensors

Normally these could be retrofitted by the dealer?

Xenon

I would love to retrofit the xenon headlights instead of my halogen pieces now. The most safe thing to do is to look for a damaged car and buy the units. However, is this possible with the adaptive lightning and the height controller? What parts do I need from the donor car in order to complete this operation? I guess it's more than just the units.

Thanks in advance all!

Front Volvo sensors are expensive to retro fit. Looking around £600. The front camera is cheaper. I was shocked. Camera is about right - I oasis £600 for mine. Do you have the 7" screen? If not factor in that cost too.
Xenons will be a nightmare. You need units, self levelling headlight washers. Maybe cheaper to change the car for one with all you want already added.

I have the 7" screen so that's safe. I figured the xenons would be almost impossible.
